Through the Human Rights Council and other UN platforms, China has incorporated important concepts such as “a community of shared future for mankind” into Human Rights Council resolutions, and raised the visibility of the Belt and Road Initiative. China has worked for the adoption of resolutions entitled “Promoting the Right of Everyone to the Enjoyment of the Highest Attainable Standard of Physical and Mental Health through Enhancing Capacity-Building in Public Health”, and “The Contribution of Development to the Enjoyment of All Human Rights”, delivered joint statements on behalf of over 140 countries on “Enhancing Dialogue and Cooperation to Protect and Promote Universally Recognized Human Rights”, “Realizing Development for the Promotion and Protection of Human Rights” and “Promote and Protect Human Rights, Build a Community of Shared Future for Mankind”, among others, and held side-events and exhibitions, including those themed “Promotion of Human Rights: Role of Poverty Reduction” and “Progress of China’s Human Rights”. These proactive efforts have helped to enhance China’s soft power and influence in international human rights arena by translating domestic governance philosophies into international consensus, and highlighting China’s human rights practices as fine examples of international cooperation.

China was re-elected to the Human Rights Council by an overwhelming majority for the years of 2014-2016 and 2017-2019, making China one of the few countries that have won the elections for four times. China was also re-elected as a member of the UN Committee on Non-Governmental Organizations. Several Chinese experts currently serve on multilateral human rights committees, including the Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, the Committee against Torture, the Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, and the Human Rights Council Advisory Committee. China’s human rights achievements have gained more international recognition, and strengthened its influence in multilateral human rights agencies and its ability to shape the development and the rules-making process of the relevant agencies.
